Huckabee: Obama deserves impeachment

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R) said "there's no doubt" President Obama "has done plenty of things worthy of impeachment," becoming the latest big-name Republican to raise the specter of removing him from office.

He added, though, that the GOP can't push to remove the president right now because they don't have the votes in the Senate.

"From a governmental standpoint you're not going to see it accomplished with this Senate," Huckabee said Monday. "But I think it's an important argument to make that there are a number of things this president has done in the overuse of the executive power, his complete ignoring of the law, even his own law."

Huckabee’s remarks are a break from House and Senate GOP leaders who have pushed hard against any discussion of impeachment.
